better together

Between DreamsJack Johnson

There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcardAnd no song that I could sing but I can try for your heartAnd our dreams and they are made out of real thingsLike a shoebox of photographs with sepia-toned lovingLove is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heartWhy are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard?It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceivingI'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together

It's always better when we're togetherWe'll look at the stars when we're togetherIt's always better when we're togetherIt's always better when we're together

And all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonightBut I know that they'll be gone when the morning light singsOr brings new things for tomorrow night you seeThat they'll be gone too, too many things I have to doI'd be under the impression I was somewhere in betweenWith only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to doOr places we got to be we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

It's always better when we're togetherWe're somewhere in between togetherIt's always better when we're togetherIt's always better when we're together

I believe in memories they look so pretty when I sleepAnd when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to meBut there is not enough timeAnd there is no song I could singAnd there is no combination of words I could sayBut I will still tell you one thingWe're better together.
